Abstract— We study optimal trajectory generation for nonholonomic mobile robots in the presence of moving obstacles. The trajectory is presented by a parameterized higher-order p...
— The present paper introduces an evaluation of the manipulation performance of a robotic arm with respect to control accuracy and mechanical efficiency, taking into considerati...
— This paper proposes a novel identification technique of constraint condition that the environment imposes on the robot’s end-effector, based on position and force sensing d...
This paper applies Pontryagin’s Maximum Principle to the time optimal control of differential drive mobile robots with velocity bounds. The Maximum Principle gives necessary con...
This paper describes the CMUnited-99 small-size robot team. The team builds on our previous RoboCup champion teams (’97 and ’98). The team reuses much of the hardware, percepti...
